BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A significant statistic has recently shown that a person born in the United States today has a 41% lifetime risk of being diagnosed with some type of cancer. There are approximately, 3.4 million are currently living with HIV/AIDS. Indeed these are alarming statistics. It is so alarming that many health organizations have urged researchers to identify effective methods to prevent cancer and the spread of HIV infections to full blown AIDS. Both cancer cells and viruses exhibit deregulations in multiple cellular signaling pathways. Viruses and cancers are similar in that they both use social networking for survival. Normal cells are compliant to internal environmental cues. On the other hand, cancer cells and virus particles side-step these chemical and physical cues in order to survive and evade the immune system. Some would even report that certain viruses are responsible for various types of cancer such as Burkitt's lymphoma & Hodgkin's lymphoma (Epstein Barr), AIDS (T-cell leukemia), liver cancer (Hepatitis), cervical cancer (HPV). Furthermore, all cancers and HIV infected cells share a number of common hallmark capabilities, such as: Genetic instability, self-sufficiency in growth signals, insensitivity to drugs, avoidance of apoptosis, unlimited replication, sustained internal cellular compartment invasion, metastasis and/or malignancies Therefore, it would be ideal to utilize specific agents that can both target multiple signaling pathways and or proteins. Compounds that can only target a single pathway or a protein in cancer as well as in HIV infections are tactics that frequently fail. Genetic instability produces intra-tumoral heterogeneity and viral heterogeneity (viral mutant) that frequently enables adaptive resistance or drug resistance overtime. Indeed, current combination chemotherapy that targets a number of distinct molecular mechanisms in both cancer and in HIV infections is preferable and considered more promising, but the use of multiple agents known in art is often constrained due to corresponding increases in toxicity overtime, most of the time damaging major organs or causing secondary malignancies. Accumulating evidence has shown that some natural products such as inositols and Genistein have signaling inducing effects both in-vivo and in-vitro in both cancer and in HIV. Their mechanism of actions appears to be made possible by site-specific action on multiple cellular signaling pathways without causing undesired toxicity in normal cells. Therefore, these non-toxic natural agents in a drink could be useful in combination with conventional chemotherapeutics and anti-virals, this can be used as preventive, or as an adjunct, or complementary.

Sun tanning is the result of sun radiation and free radical damage. This occurs when radiation from the sun is converted into oxygen-free radicals (reactive oxygen species, aka ROS) that damage the skin and its most of its support structure upon long term exposure. Free radical scavengers as well as myoinositol hexaphoshosphate (IP6) have been shown to neutralize this oxidative stress in the skin which can be caused by both UVA and UVB radiation and prevent three types of skin cancers.

According to the CDC, cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer. There are few targeted treatment options. In the United States, cigarette smoking causes about 90% of lung cancers. The world's two most populous nations—India and China—are home to more smokers than the entire population of the European Union. In China, more than 300 million people are tobacco users, while India adds another 275 million to the tally.

A study by the George Institute of Global Health in 2010 revealed that the Asia-Pacific region is home to 30 percent of the world's smokers. The impact of smoking is greatest in these countries because smokers who develop lung cancer are diagnosed at later stages of the disease and receive less effective treatment. People who smoke are 15 to 30 times more likely to get lung cancer or die from lung cancer than people who do not smoke.

Existing literature has demonstrated a clear therapeutic benefit of inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate, referred to herein as IP6, in high fiber diets and a growing number of scientific studies have demonstrated that IP6 has anti-proliferative and tumor suppressive properties and cancer prevention properties in numerous tumor types including skin cancers. The best human clinical evidence to date for cancer prevention in smokers using an oral pill form of administration is based on human clinical trials of smokers with dysplastic lung lesions that were reversed taking oral myoinositol.

Oral administration of IP6 has been shown to protect against lung and colon cancer and the prevention UVA/UVB induced skin tumors in basal, squamous, and melanoma skin tumors.

IP6 is a (poly)phosphorylated carbohydrate, ubiquitous in nature and synthesized in all animal cells. It functions as the principle storage form of phosphorous in many plants. It also occurs naturally in cereal grains, beans, brown rice, corn, sesame seeds, wheat bran, and other high fiber foods. Indeed, studies suggest that some of the health benefits afforded by eating a high fiber diet can be attributed to IP6 action. Copious amounts of high fiber is not practical for everyone and the human small intestine has very limited enzymes to break down this phosphate in order to reap the anti-cancer benefits associated with this compound. Furthermore, this phosphate gets bound to food proteins in the intestine and consequently largely gets degraded by stomach acids. Therefore a supplement for oral or an ionized aqueous administration having IP6 phytate is highly desirable.

Unlike rodents, the small intestine of humans express low levels of phytase, and this enzyme is required to metabolize IP6. Therefore, IP6 is not a source of dietary inositol and phosphate. Rather, myoinositol polyphosphates are synthesized within the body directly from phosphate and inositol, the latter being derived from glucose. IP6 ranges in concentration from 10 to 100 μM in mammalian cells. Importantly, phytic acid chelates several important minerals including zinc, iron, and to a lesser extent calcium and magnesium, although there is some debate regarding this issue for lack of evidence in vivo.

Inositol phosphates function as intracellular signaling intermediates that regulate a number of critical biochemical pathways in mammalian cells including cell cycle progression, cell differentiation, survival, migration, intracellular vesicle transport, metabolism and autophagy. Indeed, a key regulator of the activity of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) lipid substrates is the enzyme phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) which is the major cancer causing protein involved in all cancerous tumors. This enzyme phosphorylates the 3-OH residue of the myo-inositol ring of three specific PtdIns; phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate, and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate. PI3K activity plays an important role in regulating the activity of other kinases that play important roles in metabolism and cell growth and survival including AKT (protein kinase B) and mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin). Indeed, dysfunction and/or aberrant regulation of the PI3K pathway is implicated in cancers of the colon, breast, brain, liver, stomach, and lung. Therefore, development of potent and selective PI3K inhibitors as novel cancer therapeutics is currently the focus of intensive research efforts. However, first generation PI3K inhibitors developed in the art exhibited toxic side effects and poor pharmacological properties and selectivity, and as such were only effective in pre-clinical models. Alternatively, there exists a large amount of epidemiological data indicating that inositols are protective against certain forms of cancer. Indeed, a growing body of literature has linked the therapeutic benefits to natural products, such as IP6. Although IP6 has been shown to function as a free radical scavenger, other studies have demonstrated that it also functions as a PI3K inhibitor. Furthermore, several studies have shown that the ability of IP6 to block cell transformation or growth of tumor cells is directly related to inhibition of PI3K activity. For example, Huang et al. (1997) reported that IP6 at a concentration range of 0.5-2 mM showed a dose-dependent inhibition of EGF or TPA-induced cell transformation in JB6 cells as measured by three-dimensional growth in soft agar. This activity was linked to direct inhibition of PI3K. Similarly, Gu et al. (2009) showed that IP6-mediated growth inhibition of the prostatic adenocarcinoma cell line PC-3 was correlated with reduced phosphorylation levels of the p85 subunit of PI3K at Tyr⁴⁵⁸ and phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 PDKI1) at Ser²⁴¹. IP6 also caused a strong decrease in levels of integrin linked kinase 1 (ILK 1) and cyclin D1 and reduced levels of phosphorylated AKT and GSK3α/β in these cells.

Based on these results and other data in both experimental animal models and human clinical trials demonstrating a therapeutic benefit of IP6 in preventing cancer, these products can be used as a prophylactic to protect against environmental insults that are implicated in tumor promotion via modulation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

More people die of lung cancer in the U.S. than any other type of cancer. This is true for both men and women. Most importantly, the overall 5-year survival rate for patients diagnosed with lung cancer is ˜12% for men and ˜16% for women. While smoking is the main cause of lung cancer, e.g. male and female smokers are 23 and 13 times more likely to develop lung cancer than non-smokers, respectively, 15% of all lung cancer patients have never smoked. Most importantly, no reliable metrics exists that can predict whether a smoker will develop lung cancer. Since most lung cancer patients are diagnosed with advanced disease, this knowledge is critical for developing adjuvant and front line therapies to improve survival of lung cancer patients.

Several studies have shown that myoinositol has protective effects in experimental models of lung cancer. For example, Estensen and Wattenberg reported that a diet containing 3% myo-inositol fed beginning 1 week after exposure to benzo[a]pyrene reduced the number of pulmonary adenomas by 40%.

These studies are significant in that benzo[a]pyrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon found in automobile exhaust fumes, cigarette smoke, and charbroiled food metabolites, and its metabolites are both highly mutagenic and carcinogenic. Indeed, benzo[a]pyrene has been directly linked to lung and colon cancer. These results were confirmed by Hecht et al. and Witschi et al using a similar model of benzo[a]pyrene with or without 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyly)-1-butanone, the latter of which is also a component of cigarette smoke. Moreover, Witschi et al further demonstrated that a diet supplemented with 10 g per kilogram of myoinositol and 0.5 mg/kg dexamethasone (a steroid) produced a significant reduction in both lung tumor multiplicity and in tumor incidence as compared to a control diet in mice exposed to tobacco smoke. In these studies, mice were exposed to 71 mg total suspended particulates (TSP)/m³ for the first two weeks, 86 mg/m³ for three additional weeks, and 132 mg/m³ for an additional 17 weeks for 6 hr per day, 5 days per week. In these studies, the diet containing myo-inositol/dexamethasone proved to be a highly effective chemopreventive regimen. The number of tumors per lung in animals fed myoinsoitol+dexamethasone and exposed to tobacco smoke actually approached the tumor multiplicity in animals exposed to filtered air.

Recently, a landmark study published by Gustafson et al. in the high impact journal Science Translational Medicine revealed that the PI3K pathway is activated in cytologically normal proximal airway epithelial cells in smokers with lung cancer and with dysplastic lesions. In these studies, PI3K activity was measured biochemically in airway biopsies by Western blot analysis and computationally by genome-wide micro-array analysis. This analysis revealed that the PI3K pathway was significantly up regulated in the airways of smokers with lung cancer as compared to controls, and genes that play a role in phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway were also significantly up regulated. Methodologies used to evaluate lung cancer patients were confirmed by demonstrating that PI3K signaling was also up regulated in basal-like and HER2-overexpressing breast tumors that lack PTEN function, a negative regulator of the PI3K pathway. Moreover, this analysis showed that the PI3K pathway signature was expressed at higher levels in lung tumors as compared to adjacent normal tissue, indicating that PI3K activation is important for lung cancer tumorigenesis.

The work by Gustafson et al. demonstrated that smokers with regression of dysplasia following treatment with myo-inositol showed significant (p<0.05) increased expression of genes that are repressed on PI3K activation in vitro, while smokers who did not respond to myo-inositol treatment had no change in the PI3K gene sets. The decrease in PI3K activity in patients who respond to myoinositol suggests that regression of dysplasia is associated with a reduction of PI3K pathway activity in the proximal airway. The authors subsequently showed that treatment of a lung adenocarcinoma cell line with myoinositol resulted in dose-dependent decreases in PI3K activity. Indeed, the median effective concentration (EC₅₀) of myoinositol for PI3K inhibition was 7.3×10⁻⁸ M. This ECs is comparable to the myoinositol doses given for regression of dysplastic lesions to high-risk smokers, which was 9 g twice daily (Lam S et al., 2006). These findings suggest that the cancer chemoprevention properties of myoinositol are most likely related to inhibition of PI3K activity.

Safety and efficacy of myoinositol has already been established in a Phase I clinical trial-Mayo Clinic (Lam et al. 2006). In this trial, sixteen smokers between 40 and 70 years of age with greater or equal to 30 pack-years of smoking history and one or more sites of bronchial dysplasia were enrolled in a dose escalation study of myo-inositol for one month. Subsequently, ten subjects were enrolled in a 3 month study employing the maximum tolerated dose, which was found to be 18 grams per day administered via oral administration. Side effects, when present, were mild and mainly gastrointestinal in nature. More importantly, a significant increase in the rate of regression of preexisting dysplastic lesions was observed (91% versus 48%; P=0.014) and a statistically significant reduction in the systolic and diastolic blood pressures by an average of 10 mm Hg was observed. Therefore, these data demonstrate that myoInositol in a daily dose of 18 grams per day for 3 months is safe and well tolerated and produces significant regression of pre-existing dysplastic lesions in smokers.

A wealth of epidemiological data exists showing that high-fiber diets are associated with lower risks of large intestinal cancer. Since IP6 levels are high in nuts and grains, several studies have directly evaluated the cancer fighting properties of IP6 in experimental animals of colon cancer. For example, Shamsuddin et al. (1988) first demonstrated that rats supplemented with 1% sodium IP6 before or two weeks post treatment with the carcinogen azoxymethane exhibited a 35% decrease in large intestinal cancer. A follow up study conducted by Shamsuddin and Ullah (1989) further showed that treatment of rats with IP6 was effective in significantly (p=0.02) reducing large intestinal cancers even when the treatment was begun 5 months after carcinogenic induction with azoxymethane. Consistent with these data, IP6 administration also reduced early biomarkers of colon cancer risk including the degree of aberrant crypt loci and labeling index of crypt cells in rodents (Jenab and Thompson, 1998; Norazalina et al., 2010). These studies are consistent with other reports indicating that IP6 inhibits growth of the human colon cancer cell lines in vitro (Sakamoto et al. 1993; Tain and Song, 2006), lowered their metabolic activity (Schroterova et al., 2010), and decreased the number of cells in S-phase by inducing G0/G1 arrest (El-Sherbiny et al. 2001).

Inositols are available as dietary supplements. IP6, inositol, and D-chiroinositol are sold in pill or powder form. Inositol and D-chiroinositol are advertised as members of the vitamin B complex (Vitamin B₈). However, this classification is outdated since they are produced from glucose in the body and as such are not essential nutrients. Inositol is advertised as useful in ameliorating symptoms associated with anxiety and depression. In double blinded clinical trials, D-chiro-inositol provided a substantial benefit to women with polycystic ovary syndrome (Nestler, 1999; Iuorno, 2002).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is an oral, aqueous liquid formulation containing one or more of a phosphorylated myoinositol (or optical isomer thereof), including without limitation the various mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, or hexaphosphates or any mono-, di-, tri- or tetra-pyrophosphate groups, (or combinations thereof up to and including 9 phosphate groups, where a pyrophosphate is counted as 2 phosphate groups). As used herein, when the term “inositol” is used without any designation as to the particular isomer involved it is to be construed as the genus of all 9 of the optical isomers thereof unless the context of the particular sentence of paragraph require otherwise. The mono phosphates can be selected from those having the phosphate group at positions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 of the inositol 6 member ring. The di-monophosphates can be selected from the those having the 1,2-, 1,3-, 1,4-, 1,5-, 1,6-, 2,3-, 24-, 2,5-, 2,6-, 3,4-, 3,5-, 3,6-, 4,5-, 4,6-, and 5,6-diphosphate substitution pattern. The tri-monophosphates can be selected from those having the 1,2,3-, the 1,2,4-, 1,2,5-, 1,2,6-, 2,3,4-, 2,3,5-, 2,3,6-, 2,4,5-, 2,4,6-, 2,5,6-, 3,4,5-, 3,4,6-, and 4,5,6-trimonophosphate substitution pattern. The tetramonophosphates can be selected from those having the 1,2,3,4-1,2,3,5-, 1,2,3,6-, 1,2,4,5-, 1,2,4,6-, 1,3,4,5-, 1,3,4,6-, 1,4,5,6-, 2,3,4,5-, 2,3,4,6-, 2,4,5,6-, and 3,4,5,6-tetramonophosphate substitution pattern. The pentamonophosphates can be selected from those having the 1,2,3,4,5-, 1,2,3,4,6-, 1,2,3,5,6-, 1,2,4,5,6-, 1,3,4,5,6-, and 2,3,4,5,6-pentamonophosphate substitution pattern. The pyrophosphated inositols can be selected from those having up 1-4 pyrophosphate groups. The monopyrophosphates can be selected from those having the pyrophosphate group at positions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 of the inositol 6 member ring. The di-pyrophosphates can be selected from the those having the 1,2-, 1,3-, 1,4-, 1,5-, 1,6-, 2,3-, 24-, 2,5-, 2,6-, 3,4-, 3,5-, 3,6-, 4,5-, 4,6-, and 5,6-dipyrophosphate substitution pattern. The tri-pyrophosphates can be selected from those having the 1,2,3-, the 1,2,4-, 1,2,5-, 1,2,6-, 2,3,4-, 2,3,5-, 2,3,6-, 2,4,5-, 2,4,6-, 2,5,6-, 3,4,5-, 3,4,6-, and 4,5,6-tripyrophosphate substitution pattern. The tetrapyrophosphates can be selected from those having the 1,2,3,4-1,2,3,5-, 1,2,3,6-, 1,2,4,5-, 1,2,4,6-, 1,3,4,5-, 1,3,4,6-, 1,4,5,6-, 2,3,4,5-, 2,3,4,6-, 2,4,5,6-, and 3,4,5,6-tetrapyrophsophate substitution pattern. Combinations of monophosphate and pyrophosphate substitutions in a single compound are also possible and may be selected from any of the mono-monophosphates, di-monophosphates, trimonophosphates, tetramonophosphates, and pentamonophosphates mentioned above having pyrophosphate groups on any of the remaining available positions that are not monophosphated so long as the number of monophosphate groups+twice the number of pyrophosphate groups does not exceed 9. Preferably, the phosphorylated compounds are selected from tetra-monophosphate, penta-monophosphate, hexamonophosphate, pentamonophosho-monopyrophosphate, and tetrmonophophospho-dipyrophosphate. Particularly preferred are myoinositol hexaphosphate (IP6), myoinositol pentaphosphate, myoinositolpentamonophospho-monopyrophosphate, myoinositoltetramonophospho-dipyrophosphate, the corresponding phosphated (inclusive of pyrophosphorylated) D-chiroinositol analogs thereof, and the corresponding phosphated (inclusive of pyrophosphorylated) scylloinositol analogs thereof. The phosphorylated inositol component is in an effective amount as a nutritional supplement; and/or an effective amount as a medicinal for the treatment of, prevention of, or reduction of the risk of developing a cancer including, without limitation, of the skin, lung, multiple myeloma, leukemia, prostate, ovarian, pancreatic, breast, liver, throat, even viral HPV induced throat cancer, or colon; and/or an effective amount for the treatment of, prevention of, and/or reduction in the risk of damage to cells caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Other utilities and aspects of the present invention include protection of those going to high elevations (particularly pilots, extreme mountain climbers, as well as astronauts) as a protectant prophylactically against radiation exposure due to lesser protective effects of the atmosphere against ambient radiation, and environmental toxins, i.e., car exhaust, pollution, radiation, and known toxic free radical generating chemicals. (One particularly troublesome group of compound in the environment includes phthalates, which are known to generate free radical oxygen species in-vivo, and thus, the present invention is useful to offset the undesirable effects thereof.) Similarly, the present invention is also useful as a prophylactic measure against some of the accidental or routine radiation exposure involved with nuclear power plant operators and those involved in mining and refining of radioactive materials. It should be realized that the present invention is not expected to fully cure or fully prevent such effects of radiation exposure, but is of use in minimizing or reducing the effects that would result in the absence of use of the invention or any other preventative measure. Still further utilities for the present invention include usage before, during, or after radiation treatments, which radiation treatments are either for disease treatment (as in radiation for cancer therapy) or diagnostic purposes, such as CAT scans, X-rays, etc., as a partial protectant against at least some of the undesirable effects of such radiation exposure. Human exposure to urban air pollution may trigger toxic responses in brain cells, impacting neurodegenerative disease pathways. As such, the present invention is of use in the prevention and/or treatment of neurodegenerative disease states such as, without limitation, Alzheimer's and brain tumors. A particularly preferred non-limiting embodiment for such neurodegenerative conditions is one which utilizes at least one inositol or inositol phosphate(s) having the scylloinositol optical isomer configuration.

In addition to the phosphorylated inositol (any inositol isomer) component and water, the formulations optionally may also contain, one or more of (any) unphosphorylated inositol. (In one non-limiting embodiment, the unphosphorylated inositol is myoinositol and the phosphorylated inositol is myoinositol hexaphosphate.) Still further optional components of the present formulation include nutritionally acceptable monovalent electrolytes (including without being limited thereto, cations such as, without limitation sodium, and potassium, and anions such as, without limitation chloride; non-limiting examples of which include sodium chloride, and potassium chloride) as are known in the nutritional supplement arts and/or vitamins (including, without limitation thereto the B vitamins (including without limitation thiamine (vitamin BR); riboflavin (vitamin B2); niacin and/or nicotinamide (vitamin B3); pantothenic acid (vitamin B5); pyridoxine, pyridoxal, pyridoxamine, and/or pyridoxine HCl (vitamin B6); biotin (vitamin B7); folic acid (vitamin B9), and cobalamine (vitamin B12) and vitamin C), as well as herbal extracts. (Nutritionally available salts and esters of the various vitamins may be used in place of the specifically stated vitamin.) The above vitamins and electrolytes are used in amounts such that from 1 to 4 doses (whether as 30 ml, 60 ml, 90 ml, 120 ml, 150 ml, 180 ml, or 240 ml per dose) delivers from to the full US RDA independently for each one present in a particular formulation (although lesser amounts are acceptable but just not preferred). The formulations of the invention may also optionally contain one or more of flavors (such as without limitation, coconut, grape, blueberry, pomegranate, apple, strawberry, kiwi, dragonfruit, lemon, lime, raspberry, mango, etc), sweeteners (such as without limitation, sucrose, fructose, glucose, stevia, aspartame, rebaudioside A, sucralose, mannitol, xylitol, syrups, etc.), colorings, stabilizers, pH adjusters, preservatives (such as without limitation, sodium benzoate), etc, as well as thickeners and processing aids as may be generally known in the beverage and/or liquid nutritional supplement arts in amounts generally known as acceptable in the art.

Effective amounts of the phosphorylated inositol component (or optical isomers thereof), when used without other inositol components range from about 0.5 to about 4% (w/v), preferably about 0.75 to about 3% w/v, more preferably about 1 to about 2.5% w/v, still more preferably about 1.1 to about 2% w/v, even more preferably 1.2 to about 1.5% w/v, and most preferably about 1.25% w/v, most preferable & effective dose 2%-4% (w/v) phosphorylated inositol with a daily dosing typically in the range such that about 0.5 to about 18 grams per day, preferably about 1.0 to about 15 grams per day, more preferably about 1.2 to about 10 grams per day, still more preferably about 2.4 to about 8 grams per day, yet more preferably about 3.6 to about 7 grams per day, and most preferably about 4.8 grams to about 5.5 grams per day of phosphorylated inositol is administered. When combined with myoinositol, the phosphorylated component is combined with the unphosphorylated inositols (preferably myoinositol) in a ratio of the phosphorylated component to unphosphorylated inositols (most preferably myoinositol) of about 6:1 to 1:6, preferably about 5:1 to about 1:5, more preferably about 4:1 to about 1:4, still more preferably about 3:1 to about 1:3, even more preferably about 2:1 to about 1:2, most preferably about 1:1, each being a molar ratio. Other suitable ratios include, without limitation, preferably about 4.5:1 to about 1:1, more preferably about 4.25:1 to about 3:1, still more preferably about 4:1 of the phosphorylated inositol component to unphosphorylated inositols (a non-limiting preferred being myoinositol) on a molar basis. Nonetheless, the specific concentration in a given drink may be more or less (including multiple times or fractions thereof (if the volume of the drink per daily dose is properly adjusted to compensate therefore). Thus, for example, for a 1.25% w/v solution of myoinositolhexaphosphate (IP6), where a drink is intended to deliver 3000 mg/240 ml with a serving or dose size of 240 ml (i.e. to deliver a 6 g dose of myoinositol hexaphosphate in two 240 ml doses, typically administered as 240 ml twice daily), an alternate drink having 1500 mg/120 ml with a serving or dose size of 120 ml (either taken 4 times a day or in the situation where a lower dosing is desired, less frequently), or another alternate of 62.5 mg/5 ml where significantly lower amounts are desired. Adjustment of dosings for smaller than average or larger than average adults or for adolescents or children will generally be within the skill of one of ordinary skill in the art given the foregoing ranges for a typical adult. When used in combination with other inositol species, the specific amount of phosphorylated component may be reduced somewhat, but preferably, the other inositol species are added to the above mentioned amounts of the phosphorylated component. In one particularly preferred embodiment, the invention has myoinositolohexaphosphate optionally with or without myoinositol as the only inositol species. When an IP6 is used in combination with an unphosphorylated inositol, the most preferred ratio is stated above is a molar ratio of 1:1 and in a most preferable, but non-limiting embodiment, the total daily dose of such a ratio is about 4.8 grams of the myoIP6 (or isomer thereof) together with 1.32 grams of the unphosphorylated myoinositol (or isomer thereof).

As to the inositol optical isomers that may be used for the invention there are myoinositol, scylloinositol, mucoinositol, D-chiroinositol, L-chiroinositol, neoinositol, alloinositol, epiinositol, and/or cisinositol, with myoinositol, and D-chiroinositol being preferred and myoinositol being most preferred. As to the isomers of the phosphorylated inositol component, one may use the any of the phosphates and pyrophosphates set forth in paragraph 0031 above with any of the inositol optical isomers of the preceding sentence, with myoinositol hexaphosphate, D-chiroinositol hexaphosphate, and scylloinositol hexaphosphate being non-limiting preferred species and myoinositol hexaphosphate being a non-limiting most preferred species.

As the optional free radical scavengers, any orally acceptable free radical scavenger known in the art is a is acceptable for use in the present invention, for example, without limitation, N-Acetyl-L-cysteine, L-Ascorbic acid, Balsalazide (typically available as the disodium salt hydrate), Caffeic acid, (−)-Catechin gallate, Chlorogenic acid, Delphinidin chloride, Diosmin, Ellagic acid, (−)-Epicatechin, Fucoxanthin carotenoid antioxidant, (−)-Gallocatechin, (−)-Gallocatechin gallate, Gallic acid, Ginkgolide B, 3-Hydroxytyrosol, Luteolin, Lycopene, Neochlorogenic acid, Resveratrol, Rutin hydrate, Seleno-L-methionine, Se-(Methyl)selenocysteine hydrochloride, Ubiquinol (liposomal encapsulated Qunol) CoQ10, and Sodium selenite, most preferably L-ascorbic acid. The optional orally acceptable free radical scavengers can be used in amounts generally known as acceptable in the art; when ascorbic acid is used, it is preferably present in amounts of about 30 mg/20 ml of solution (i.e., about 0.025% w/v) or 60 mg/120 ml of solution (about 0.05% w/v). Although, optional, of these, Ubiquinol in an orally administrable, absorbable form is a non-limiting, but particularly preferred species. Such orally administrable and absorbable forms of Ubiquinol are set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 6,455,072 which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference. When used, the Ubiquinol is present in an amount of up to about 300 mg Ubiquinol per dose, preferably up to about 250 mg. more preferably up to 200 mg. In other embodiments, the Ubiquinol is present in at least 50 mg/dose, at least 100 mg/dose, and most preferably at about 200 mg/dose.

An additional known free radical/reactive oxygen scavenger, for use in the present invention is Genistein. In the present invention, when Genistein is used, it is used in amounts in the range (in mg/kg/day) of from a lower end of about 1 to about 5 mg to an upper range end of about 10 to about 50 mg. Exemplary dosing ranges (in mg/kg/day) include (without limitation) those with a range lower limit of about 1 mg, about 2 mg, about 3 mg, about 4 mg, about 5 mg, about 6 mg, about 7 mg, about 8 mg, about 9 mg, about 10 mg, about 12.5 mg, about 15 mg, about 17.5 mg, about 20 mg, about 25 mg, about 30 mg, about 35 mg, and about 40 mg and having an upper end point of the range selected from about 10 mg, about 12.5 mg, about 15 mg, about 17.5 mg, about 20 mg, about 25 mg, about 30 mg, about 35 mg, about 40 mg, about 45 mg, and about 50 mg. Within these ranges, preferred dosages are in the range (in mg/kg/day) of about 1 to about 30 mg, more preferably about 2 to about 20 mg, still more preferably about 3 to about 15 mg, even more preferably about 5 to about 12.5 mg, most preferably about 10 mg. In the present invention, when Genistein is used, it is used in combination with one or more the other inositol isomers and/or the inositol hexaphosphate isomers mentioned herein, preferably the Genistein is used in combination with at least one unphosphorylated inositol isomer and at least one phosphorylated inositol isomer, most preferably at least one of a tetramonophosphate, a pentamonophosphate, a hexamonophosphate, a pentamonophospho-monopyrophosphate, a tetramonophospho-dipyrophosphate of at least one inositol isomer. In some particularly preferred embodiments, myoinositol hexaphosphate and myoinositol is used. In others, the corresponding hexaphosphate and unphosphorylated combination of the other inositol isomers are used in which the phosphorylated component is the hexaphosphate of the unphosphorylated inositol used. Whether the Genistein is used in combination with inositols which are (a) only phosphorylated inositol isomers, or (b) combinations of unphosphorylated inositol isomers AND phosphorylated inositol isomers, the benefits of the invention may be obtained. The non-limiting preferred unphosphorylated inositol isomers for the Genistein containing embodiments are selected from myoinositol, D-chiroinositol, and scylloinositol. Independently, the preferred phosphorylated inositol isomers for use in the Genistein containing embodiments are selected from myoinositol phosphates, D-chiroinositol phosphates, and scylloinositol phosphates (each inclusive of the full range of monophosphato and pyrophosphate- and mixed monophosphato-pyrophosphato groups set forth above). These Genistein and Inositol isomeric combinations (whether phosphorylated or unphosphorylated or both) may be used as is or in combination with the other (non-inositol type) components (mentioned herein) in analogous manners as set forth herein with respect to the compositions that do not mention Genistein specifically.

The combination use of Genistein and the inositols and/or the inositol phosphates as described above gives rise to the ability to prevent, delay, modulate, reduce, and treat HIV infections, in a substantially enhanced, substantially non-toxic manner, especially as compared to current medicinal agents for use in the treatment and prophylaxis for HIV. Neither the inositol components nor the Genistein component have the known side effects or associated drug toxicities' and/or drug resistance known to occur with current drugs used to treat HIV and/or AIDS cancers and disseminated diseases due to being plant-based, will likely side step the toxicity issues faced with current drugs, a common occurrence or by product of the everyday and life-long use of the pharmaceutical based regimen faced by HIV positive individuals. This product can be preventive, also an adjunct and/or complementary treatment because patients over time do become resistant to their drugs due to HIV mutant infections known to occur in this disease as well as in cancer. Without being confined to the theory, it is believed that instead of acting directly with the virus, Genistein blocks the many cellular processes that appear to be necessary for the virus to infect cells by inducing a conformational change. This conformational change and signal block works along with the inositol isomer components (whether or not phosphorylated) in a synergistic manner with lesser side effects, and better compliance and better user acceptability to achieve positive outcomes in both cancer and HIV. This allows for impeding viral DNA synthesis and cancer growth and/or impeding viral nuclear migration so that the invention Genistein containing compositions can be used in the prevention, treatment, and amelioration of HIV infection of immune cells, especially resting CD4 T-cells.

The present invention offers phosphorylated inositols in an aqueous oral form as a means to reap the therapeutic benefits of this natural product, particularly in lieu of or in addition to a diet high in fiber. One of the advantages of the present invention is that the delivery of undigested phytate IP6 and the other inositol species are in a form in which they are not captured and broken down as readily as solid forms containing these agents.

As previously described, the present invention formulation is used for an oral delivery of the active agents therein for the prevention and/or treatment and/or reduction of the risk of developing cancers such as, without limitation, one or more of skin cancer (inclusive of squamous, basal, and melanoma), breast, prostate, ovarian, pancreatic, lung cancer, colon cancer liver cancer, bone cancer, soft tissue cancer, muscular cancer (such as without limitation) or a blood cancer (such as without limitation a leukemia) (or as described in Table A above) and/or treatment of damage and/or prevention of damage and/or reduction of the risk of damage to cells by reactive oxygen species free radicals that are generated in the body due to environment or metabolic insult. Environmental or metabolic insult may arise from exposure to a wide variety of factors, including radiation, known carcinogens, and known free oxygen radical generating substances (such as in, without limitation, cigarette smoke, pollutants, radiation exposure (whether natural, or created in the workplace, or incident to diagnostic tests and medical treatments, etc.). For the above purposes, a suitable (non-limiting, exemplary) dose of a formulation of the present invention having about 1% to about 4% w/v of myoinositol hexaphosphate (and/or optical isomer thereof) or other phosphorylated species of myoinositol or its isomers as set forth above (mono-nona phosphates) therein in an amount of about 30 ml to about 480 ml, preferably about 60 ml to about 360 ml, more preferably 90 ml to about 270 ml, still more preferably 360 ml, about 120 ml to about 240 ml, most preferably about 180 ml to about 240 ml at least once to 2 times per day, with variations thereon that will be recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art for delivery of about 3 g to about 9 g of myoinositol hexaphosphate (and/or optical isomers thereof) or of the other corresponding phosphates having from 1 to 9 phosphate groups (inclusive of those having pyrophosphate groups in which each pyrophosphate is counted as two of the up to 9 phosphates) on a daily basis for an average adult in 1-2 or 2-4 divided doses a day.

The formulations of the present invention most preferably have the inositol components thereof in solution and preferably are clear, although non-inositol portions of the formulation may make the solution less than completely clear without departing from the invention.

The following non-limiting examples are exemplary only and do not have any limiting effect on the present invention.
